How Motuva Studio works

Studio cuts your car out of the photo, renders your studio or scene from the same angle, and places the car in it with a shadow and your plate. Here's how.

Written by Andre, Team Motuva

You give Studio a photo of a car. It gives you back the same car, from the same angle, standing in your studio or scene.

What happens to your photo

Studio first works out what the photo shows.

  • The outside of the car: Studio cuts the car out, works out the camera angle, renders your studio or scene from that same angle, and places the car in it with a matching shadow. If you use plate covers, your branded plate goes over the real one.
  • A close-up, such as a wheel or a badge: the detail is placed over your studio's or scene's background.
  • The interior: the cabin is kept, and the view through the windows turns white.

The paint, trim and wheels all come from your photo. Studio places the car; it doesn't redraw it.

Your studio or scene

Every advert is made in your active studio or scene, with your logo where there's room for one. On the Free plan you use ready-made studios and scenes from the library; on Pro and Ultra you can also save ones you build. See Choose a background.

The same photo gives the same result

The same photo in the same studio always comes out the same, so there's no regenerate button. For a different result, use a different studio or a different photo. See Re-generate an image.

One photo, one image

Each photo in an advert uses one image from your monthly allowance. Retrying an advert that didn't finish, or changing one photo's plate, doesn't.

What Studio doesn't do

It doesn't repair damage, change the car's colour or angle, or remove things from the car. See What Studio does NOT do.
